Replacement Speaker Grills???
Greetings All,
I had to take my drivers door apart this weekend on the 84 for some electrical repairs. While I had it open I decided to removed the non working Bose boxes from the doors. The stereo had long since been changed but due to the box still being in the door the max speaker size was limited to approx 4" w/o mods. I removed the box, replaced it with a piece of plywood and mounted some Diamond 5.25" coaxials. They sound great and add a bit more presence to the front. However now the issue is that due to the tweeters being raised above the flush surface of the "woofer" on these speakers, the bose grills no longer fit due to them not being flat in the rear.
So my question is, did the "base" stereo speakers come with a flat grill, or were they the same w/o the Delco Bose emblem? And as this is for a 1984, perhaps later years might have been different/flat? Bottom line is I'm looking for any suggestions about sourcing a flat speaker grill that would cover the square hole in the door panel.
TIA.

Only thing I could suggest
Is take a look on Crutchfield and see if they may have something your looking for.
They make some custom grills there.
Just put in the year and make of your car and see what comes up.
Hope that helps you out.
Ps Hi ACECO did you get my PM?
